Mobile apps for public transport

These mobile apps help you use public transport in Victoria. 


PTV App

Plan your journey and manage your myki with the fully accessible PTV App:

If your device uses an old operating system, the PTV App may not work properly. 

The PTV App lets you:

  • register your myki so if you lose your card, you won’t lose your funds
  • top up instantly when you scan your myki
  • set a favourite journey shortcut to your home screen
  • find out when the next service is due, or see nearby departures
  • travel easier with disruption alerts.

The app includes voice-over capability and large-font options. When you’re on a train, tram or bus, the PTV App can notify you as you reach your stop.
